You should have a remote wire from the back of your headunit.. not sure if there is a remote wire out the back of the standard head unit though if that is what your using.

do you mean you are looking for an ignition live wire to splice in to make the stereo turn off with the ignition?

just run a wire from the live of anything that is an ignition only live to the power wire of the stereo.keep the 12v feed to retain the memory,and cut the 12v main power and connect that to your ignition live.its a Fiat thing that the stereo has constant power

shouldnt go cutting/joining any wires just by colour (they can change through production) get a cheap multimeter off ebay and you can find any wire you need.one of the punto guys may help in the short(no pun intended) term but as a rule always use a meter.
